Go fly a kite

This Sunday, the Design Museum is celebrating the centenary of powered flight with a workshop, supported by Rolls-Royce, that's designed to put the wind in your sails.

Budding young aviators can design and make their own kites, and then head outside to fly them on the riverfront against the backdrop of Tower Bridge.

Places are limited, so booking is essential.

Design Museum, Shad Thames, SE1 (020-7940 8782). Sun 13 Jul, 2pm-5pm, £6, child £4, free entry with ticket to museum.
